My 10-pound, 1-year-old dog, Dolly, has chewed on a Vyvanse pill, and I don't know how long it's been since she did it, but she's currently whining. She hasn't vomited since chewing the pill, and it still had most of the medication in it, so it's hard to say how much she's had. What should I do?

My dachshund, Ace, has had diarrhea for over 24 hours. I have Imodium but am unsure of the dosage. He started having diarrhea the night before last, possibly due to treats or spicy food given by the grandkids. Ace is a rescue, estimated to be around 9-10 years old, and we started using PetLab dental care in his water 6 days ago. He is not on any other medications or supplements, and while his appetite is slightly down, he is still eating and drinking normally. There is no vomiting, lethargy, or depression, but the grandkids' loud arguing could have upset him. What should I do about the diarrhea and how should I administer Imodium?

My dog, Oliver, a 16-week-old puppy, has been straining to pee since I picked him up from boarding this morning. He initially peed without issue but has since been unable to produce much urine despite trying multiple times. His urine was dark initially but now he can't seem to pee at all. He was playful initially but has become more lethargic. What could be causing this and is it an emergency?

My chocolate Labrador has large, plaster-like sores between his toes on his front paws, and I'm noticing it starting on his back paws. This has been a concern for several months. I initially thought he was allergic to grass at our new house and gave him Benadryl, but it didn't help. He also has a patch on his tail where he lost hair and frequently has bad ear infections that I can't seem to fully manage, even with cleaning and previous antibiotics and gel from his old vet. What could be causing these issues, and what should I do next?

My dog, Arya, has a dry and irritated area on her nose. She doesn't seem to be in pain or itching it, but I'm concerned about the condition. What could be causing this and what can I do to help her skin heal?
